And while you are at it, how about a doll house reflecting all your urbex stuff... one that is crumbling, but beautiful with all the askew hanging tattered red velvet curtains, varied colored moss growing on floors... and all sorts of figures like you have here in this bathtub, ghostly but still human figures, sorta from their own time (before the curtains got tattered and moss grew) and sorta ghostly too, and sorta transendent like your figure in the bath... so we the viewer could see the ephemoral yet lovely nature of the now intersecting with the impermanent... plus a good ghost story... all at once in a spooky, beautiful, little mini urbex doll house?
Just more ideas for you...
As Mrs Lovett, in Sweeney Todd, would say, "You know me... bright ideas just pop out of my head!"
Lol.
Just ruminating on possibilities your piece made me think of...
I'm thinking tattered (red) velvet curtains as well, tied back with tiny galvanized chains and hook&eyelet hardware. Reminds me of life in Brooklyn.
Abandonment home, of course, which calls for an industrial make-shift edge to the decor. Complete with vines tearing the outer wall structures apart in seasonal slow-motion.
SHIT, man. You gonna be around for consultations on this one? want'cha here, dude.
Is that a dollhouse bathtub and rug? It would be fascinating to see you make a whole doll house with real life, arty figures doing all sorts of very human, and not so demure things... such as naked taking baths, cutting toe-nails, cleaning up doggie poopie... all the real things that real people do.
This figure manages to look sort of, what should I say, both very human and enjoying of something earthly, and sort of transfigured, all at once...
A doll house of the beauty and transcendence in the everyday... all in miniature and sorta arty... that would be cool.
it IS a dollhouse bath tub. Not big at all. The rug is actually a mouse thing... uh.. the thing you use with your computer mouse for ball-roller traction.
I will one day do a complete scene, an entire house. [link]
That is for later. When some cats are no longer with us, I think. Well, no... there's always the cat-free basement. AND I want the influence of my fiance on that one since it will be more than a day's time to construct and perfect. Needing the second set of invested eyes that would know what I'm looking to reach for.
Yeah. I would have the dolls do nothing less than "REAL LIFE" activities. Daily existence ain't the most graceful thing to behold and I intend to remain who I am; and idiot-genius who leans towards that which is uncomfortable to imagine, brought to the foreground ONLY because it's all that interests me. Anyone can do "cute" and contrived stills ~ unremarkable shit if you ask me. Facebook fuque-all.

Giving you credit and all.

Yes, cats are no respecters of art! Wink.
Fascinating video... really captures us and our modern existence.
Here are the questions and thoughts it left me with:
Who are we strange creatures, we humans?
What the heck is the meaning of all this "stuff" we create and strew about the earth?
How soon each of us are gone, and our stuff is left behind, strewn about, crumbling... sorta beautiful and ghostly.
It is sorta horrific that we produce, leave, strew about so much.
What is the meaning of it all, this strange, thing-filled life? We are very focused on things.
I will be watching the progress of your dollhouse!
